Water Temp v wetsuit

Tried my new wetsuit out at the Y. Water temp around 80. Works very well, but too warm to do much of a workout. Question: What water temp would be the line for wetsuit or no wetsuit? Is there a temp set by the event?

    I think it is time to weed out the lightweights. For most of my life OW swimming has been ocean swimming. But then I moved to Oregon and people appear to think that lake swimming is the same sport. Outside the great lakes, I think it is time that we ignore all results from lake swims. Heck I have swum in pools with rougher water than some of the lake swims I've been in.
